How to heat up my pet chinchilla?

The temperature at home is high. Can I have a chinchilla?

27 degrees, very hot, my friend. The normal room temperature in Canada is around 17-20, but the problem is that at 23-30 in summer, I think he can't stand the heat. . . Besides, your house is too hot.

If it is 23, you can also build a marble iron springboard porcelain nest. Needless to say, it's so exaggerated to turn on the air conditioner 24 hours a day, but you should ask the pet shops in Beijing to see what they think.

How to raise chinchillas correctly?

Feeding of young chinchillas:

1) Young chinchillas (before 8 months old) are mainly fed with staple food, alfalfa and grass. For example: the first day: grass in the morning and vegetables in the evening; The next day: alfalfa in the morning and grain at night; Day 3: Repeat the first day, and so on.

2) In fact, all young chinchillas should take alfalfa as their staple food, so as to provide them with enough nutrition. In addition, they should take Timothy grass only two days a week to reduce the gastrointestinal burden. If eating only alfalfa and staple food leads to soft stool, the weight of chinchilla will be affected.

3) In the early years of my chinchilla, the breeder should prepare enough food for it, eat less and eat more meals every day, which not only meets the nutritional needs of my chinchilla, but also avoids eating too much and making my chinchilla obese. In addition, it is best not to feed snacks to baby chinchillas.

Feeding of adult chinchillas:

1) Adult chinchillas (eight months later) give staple food and grass, and stop alfalfa.

2) Besides preparing suitable staple food for adult chinchilla, you can also prepare a small amount of snacks for it. The snacks that my neighbor totoro can eat are simple: the specialty snacks of my neighbor totoro, or the peeled and diced fresh apples, carrots, sand fruits or red fruits. For any snacks, it is enough to give 1~2 every other day. Don't give more!

3) An adult chinchilla needs 20 ~ 40ml of water a day. My neighbor totoro is a very drought-tolerant animal, but its drinking water must be clean, and it is not allowed to drink raw water. At least my neighbor totoro should drink boiled water or pure water.

Matters needing attention in raising chinchillas:

1) My totoro can't eat any fresh vegetables and fruits. The only thing that can be given to them is apples. Foods with high water content are easy to cause chinchilla diarrhea.

2) Totoro can't eat peanuts and soybeans. Peanuts contain too much oil, and soybeans absorb water into the abdomen, which will cause discomfort to Totoro and may even lead to intestinal obstruction and death.

3) The remaining feed and hay should be discarded. Generally, chinchillas will pick leftovers and feel that they are not nutritious. We should trust their professional vision.

4) Alfalfa is one of the main ingredients of chinchilla feed, and eating a lot of alfalfa can quickly fatten chinchilla. But it shouldn't make my chinchilla overweight, so alfalfa should be used as an auxiliary nutrient grass, usually twice a week, but my chinchilla who just got home can give more, because the nutrition provided by large-scale farms often can't fully meet its growth and development needs. Other hay, such as oats, wheat and barley straw, can be used as auxiliary hay to adjust the taste of chinchilla. Remember that my neighbor totoro can't eat fresh grass, and can't just pull out some weeds to feed it.

5) My totoro cage should be placed in a cool and ventilated place, not in the air outlet. If my totoro keeps being blown by the wind, I will catch a cold.

6) Summer is a sad season for my totoro. Because my neighbor totoro's hair is thick, it's best to turn on the air conditioner to reduce the indoor temperature when the weather is sultry in summer.

Is my neighbor totoro a pet? How should I raise it? What is the approximate price?

General law of chinchilla reproduction

1) Location of Totoro Cage

Cages must be placed in high places, such as tables, cabinets and chairs ... but they can't be placed directly on the ground, because chinchillas will be hunted by eagles in the wild ... ancient DNA shadows. ...

Cages should be placed in a cool place, not exposed to direct sunlight or ventilation.

The former will make my chinchilla suffer from heatstroke and dehydration, while the latter will make my chinchilla catch a cold.

2) Drinking water for chinchillas

Drinking water is usually cold boiled water, or clean pure water, mineral water and other human drinking water. Clean drinking water must be available at all times. Generally, change the water in the kettle every other day and clean the kettle at the same time. Pay attention to cleaning the gasket at the spout to avoid microbial growth. five

You'd better hang the kettle outside the cage. The right place we found was the door of a standard chinchilla cage. My chinchilla, which is highly suitable for me, is easy to drink water when standing up in the cage, and because the switch of the cage door is blocked, my chinchilla is not easy to bite the pot.

3) Methods of feeding chinchillas

Be sure to feed grass and dry food alternately every other day, but only one kind of food, or dry food, or grass and grass can be fed every day, and alfalfa hay or alfalfa granules can be fed.

! ! ! Pay special attention! ! ! A balanced diet is very important. There are precedents. Long-term picky eaters (like eating a single food) have led to the thinning of my baby totoro's hair. So, don't let my baby totoro pick what he likes just because he thinks he is looking at you. Dry food and hay are indispensable. If baby chinchilla is found picking grass leaves in hay and abandoning grass stems, it can be fed with dry food one day and dry food and hay leaves one day to ensure nutrition.

Feed the baby totoro grass regularly for their gastrointestinal health! .

4) Totoro snacks

You can give it every other day, but not too much. Give 1 or 2 times a day, and give a small piece of diced meat or special snacks once. If you eat too many snacks, my neighbor totoro will not like to eat them, and even the stomach will be overburdened.

5) Control the picky eaters of chinchillas.

Totoro is characterized by impatience. They usually eat with their small hands, and after a few bites, they fall off, causing waste. Careful owners will divide the food into smaller pieces so that my totoro can eat it all at once. However, if there is very little food, and my neighbor totoro deliberately eats half of it and loses half of it, then he must be hungry and don't feel bad, and the children will become thinner and thinner when they are picky eaters ~'

6) Totoro takes a bath

Totoro is not allowed to take a bath with water, but should use sand bath powder. Give my chinchilla a bath every 4-5 days in dry weather, and every day in the wettest weather (rainy season and sauna day).

Domestic fine sand bath powder is good for the delicate skin and hair of chinchilla, but it will produce dust during use, which will cause trouble to the owner. My solution is to spread the sand bath powder on the bottom of a clean plastic bucket with a thickness of 1-2 cm, put it on the ground, and take my chinchilla in and wash it. When I stand by, some of the dust he throws will be blocked by the barrel wall, and a small part will not reach my nose and mouth. If the imported chinchilla sand bath powder with larger particles is used, the dusting phenomenon will be much smaller.

You can also buy rice barrels made in Japan, and the lid is transparent. When my neighbor totoro takes a bath, she can see you through the transparent cover without raising dust. P^[K

The Japanese special Totoro bathtub is very expensive, but the design is reasonable. You can put it directly in the chinchilla cage, and the chinchilla will jump in and take a shower. Handy friend, I suggest you refit a bathtub for my totoro with a small receiver.

7) Adaptability of Totoro

My neighbor totoro is very cautious and timid to strangers, but he is like a spoiled brat in front of his master. My neighbor totoro can get familiar with strange sounds, environments and people in 1-2 days, but he will be nervous before getting familiar with them, so don't expect my neighbor totoro to take him for a walk in the busy street. Be careful not to let my totoro exercise excessively.

8) When you let my chinchilla go out to play, be careful not to let him exercise too hard, so as not to cause intestinal distortion of obese baby.

9) Totoro calcium supplement

My totoro likes to jump. It is very important to have a good skeleton. You can feed him a calcium tablet with the taste of children's fruit every other day before meals, and he will hold it himself.

Or, you can go to the pet hospital to buy some calcium powder for rodent pets and mix it in the feed of my neighbor totoro.

10) gastrointestinal regulation of chinchilla

Under normal diet, if the chinchilla is constipated, the feces will become smaller and darker, and the appetite will decrease. It is also helpful to find constipation in time, feed some apples to relax the bowels, and let him come out to do proper exercise. If you have a bad appetite and loose stools, you should only feed hay straw and a piece of lactic acid bacteria before meals ... >>

How to raise chinchillas in winter?

The normal feeding environment of chinchillas should be 8-25 degrees and the relative humidity below 50%. Require a dry environment. However, my neighbor totoro can tolerate temperatures above 0 degrees, but not for long. If the temperature drops, we should pay attention to taking some heat preservation measures for my neighbor totoro. You can cover the cage with cloth to keep warm. In addition, you can put a hot water bottle wrapped in a towel in the cage, but be careful not to let my neighbor totoro bite the towel and hot water bottle. It's better to replace the house and springboard with wood. And put the cage indoors, not facing the window. It is best to open the window for ventilation in the morning, and be sure to close the window when the owner is not at home. Feed him special feed and grass regularly every day. As for the weight of each totoro, my totoro knows that it is hungry, even if you force it to eat, it won't eat, so you let it go a few days ago, and then according to how much it eats, you should eat more in winter and supply grass, not * * *. Grass is more important than feed. Eating more grass will help him digest. Don't worry about winter in winter, just keep warm a little. Totoro is afraid of heat and cold, so it is very important to prevent heatstroke and cool down. It seems that he is the most lively around 25 degrees.

How to cool my chinchilla? The temperature in my house is too high! ! !

Ice nest: You have to change the ice often. Air conditioning is more reliable.

Does the pet chinchilla bite? Do you need an injection after being bitten? What is the suitable temperature for raising chinchillas! What to eat? Solve!

At present, chinchillas and humans have not been found to be sick, so the problem is not big. If you are bitten, you can wash it with soap. If you are not at ease, you can get an injection. My chinchilla has no parasites, but it may not be in my body. See if there is any source of disease and infection. Generally, it will be infected with diseases such as trichomoniasis, similar to enteritis. My neighbor totoro's nails will be bitten off by myself. Compared with other pets, my neighbor totoro is a convenient pet. It doesn't need much care like cats and dogs, but there will be no relatives like cats and dogs. Let's go to the boutique area to see how to raise the boutique area and the posts about disease prevention.

What should I pay attention to when raising a chinchilla?

First of all, the most important law

1) Wash your hands carefully before touching my totoro and its cage.

The most vulnerable place of my chinchilla is that it has no resistance to fungi, especially the young chinchilla with low resistance. Although the fungus infected by human hands due to contact with money or feet is hardly a threat to human beings, it can easily make my chinchilla bald. Once you are bald, it is time-consuming and laborious, so it is better to plan ahead.

2) Don't take it for granted to feed all kinds of food to my chinchilla.

Totoro originally lived in the barren land of the Andes in South America, and the food it could eat was very single. My chinchilla, rescued from extinction and raised artificially, also lacks digestive enzymes that our ancestors did not have. So many foods that we think are very common can't be fully digested by my chinchilla.

So just feed my chinchilla special dry food feed and hay, and the snacks I can eat are also very simple: special chinchilla snacks, or fresh apples, carrots, sand fruits or red fruits peeled and diced. For any snacks, it is enough to give 1-2 every other day. Don't give more!

Most of the deaths of chinchillas are caused by feeding inappropriate food. My neighbor totoro is very greedy. He loves to eat a lot, but many things are harmful to his stomach. Some of them will cause diarrhea soon after eating, others will cause hematuria, thinning hair, or sudden flatulence and death.

Some people say that I fed my totoro something, but I didn't see him sick and dead. Just like a child crossing the street without looking at the car. It's dangerous, but it's possible that nine times out of ten it's okay. However, all this is a fluke. If something happens, it will be a life-threatening event.

Advise the owner who loves my neighbor totoro: don't try to challenge my neighbor totoro's stomach;

Carrots are good snacks;

Don't feed any supermarket food such as raisins;

The quality of imported chinchilla feed is worrying, so be careful.

My neighbor totoro is like a stubborn child. Don't force him to do anything, but seduce him with food.

Fortunately, my neighbor totoro knew that he was hungry and couldn't keep him alive, so he let go and fed him. Giving him food by hand is the easiest way to build feelings.

Including all kinds of articles reprinted on my forum to train my totoro to play tricks, all of which are mainly based on appropriate food temptation ~

How to raise my totoro and what should I pay attention to?

Tips for feeding chinchillas

In the mountainous area of South America, where it originated, the weather is dry and the temperature difference between day and night is very far. Only some plants in the desert and tropics can survive. As a vegetarian, chinchilla cubs eat cactus roots, bark and hay for a living. However, their food has been improved since artificial breeding was successful. With the increasing popularity of raising chinchilla cubs, many pet food manufacturers have now launched a series of products specially designed for them.

1, basic feed

It is not difficult to feed them, as long as they use about a teaspoon of "Totoro Food" and a small bundle of alfafa when they get up every night. Alfalfa is their favorite hay. Don't just pick some weeds from the roadside.

There is also a kind of alfalfa grass brick, which is pressed into a cube and can be used to grind teeth.

2. Drinking water

Of course, fresh water is indispensable. Just hang a plastic water bottle for small animals outside the cage Because the quality of water pipes in Hong Kong is really not flattering, I still suggest that you use filtered water or distilled water, which is safer than teaching.

Remember to change fresh water every day and wash the water bottle with hot water every week.

Step 3: fast food

Many snacks, such as raisins, melon seeds and even a small piece of apple, are also very popular with them. Some snacks specially designed for them can also be bought in the market. Although they like this kind of food very much, remember not to overfeed it, because it will become a partial eclipse, and may also cause gastrointestinal discomfort and diarrhea, which is not good for your health.

4. Vitamins and minerals

In fact, there are enough vitamins in my chinchilla's food, but if your chinchilla is thin, you can add some liquid vitamins to it to drink.

In addition, put a mineral stone or wood block to let small animals grind their teeth and absorb minerals.

5, feeding rules:

1) Feed them once every night when you wake up. But if your chinchilla refuses to return to the cage after being released because it is full, you can put it out to play and then feed it.

2) Only enough hay is needed for grass school in the house during the day.

3) Three-month-old children's weight is halved, and then gradually increased until they are eight months old.

4) If you can't finish eating, it means that you have fed too much, so you should reduce the weight.

5) there is nothing left to eat, which means it may be too small.

6) Unfinished hay should be discarded to prevent mildew.

7) Feed my totoro when it is released for play, but remember not to eat too much.

8) Don't give some exciting food, but deliberately fool them, because even if they are cheated, it may take a long time to accept your food next time.

6, harmful food:

1) They may like to eat bird food or hamster food, but feeding chinchillas with other feeds for a long time may be harmful to them and cannot be detected in real time. The most common problem of chinchillas is gastrointestinal diseases. As long as they are not given snacks indiscriminately, it is generally not a big problem.

2) green plants, such as lettuce, can occasionally give one or two pieces, but large quantities will cause diarrhea.

3) Cedar wood (redwood) is harmful to them.

Matters needing attention

The smaller my chinchilla is, the easier it is to domesticate it.

Don't frighten him when domesticating, lest he feel afraid of others.

Steps:

First, let it know you first, and feed some dried fruit feed by hand;

Second, put the feed in the palm of your hand and let it feed;

Third, gently touch its back with your hand to make it feel safe in your mother's arms;

Fourth, gently lift your hands and put them in your arms. If it is not nervous, it means that it is not afraid of you, and you can play with it slowly in the future.

If my neighbor totoro runs out of the cage, the correct way to catch it is to grab its tail with your right hand, then lift it with your left arm and put it back in the cage. Don't grab other parts to avoid injury.

Totoro's bones are soft and its fur is precious, so we need to know several correct ways to hold it, so as not to hurt them or damage their fur.

Farms usually catch chinchillas by lifting their tails and hanging them. They don't care about the feelings of my neighbor totoro, and they don't care about dragons ... >>

How can I raise a good chinchilla? What should I pay attention to when raising a chinchilla?

How to raise my chinchilla in winter? There is heating in the house. . .

My neighbor totoro used to live in the mountains before becoming a pet, so it is very cold-resistant. Generally speaking, nothing needs to be prepared in winter. My neighbor totoro can accept the temperature of 4℃ to 28℃, so it only needs to be heated below 4℃. In addition to heating, I suggest that the owner can wrap a warm water bag with a towel and put it in a cage to keep my totoro warm, but be careful not to let my totoro bite the towel and warm water bag. This method can directly heat my neighbor totoro than heating, but it has certain risks. If the owner is still worried that the chinchilla will catch cold, he can cover the cage with cloth to keep the chinchilla warm in winter, or he can turn it into a wooden house or springboard, because wooden objects are warmer. Another thing that needs the owner's attention is that my neighbor totoro is particularly afraid of cold when he is sick, so the above measures must be taken when he is sick.
